He’s a beast who devours. And me?I’m his supper.War tore me from home and dumped me on Novaria. My only hope lies in pleasing a brute.I’m sent to him as a tribute. I have one chance to entice him. Only one shot to win his good graces. The thing is…I’m not such an innocent waif myself. I’m used to men who hurt me. That take my heart and rip it to shreds. So the first touch of kindness from this … it to shreds.
So the first touch of kindness from this scaly alien has me on edge.
What is he preparing me for?
How is he going to wound me?
We’re two twisted hearts.
Warped and ruined by a galaxy at war.
All we know is death and violence.
Maybe there’s a good person underneath our hurt.
Or maybe we’re just all broken.
But I know this.
Given a choice, there’s nowhere I’d rather be now.
Than be broken and leashed by my beast.
My love.
Leashed By The Beast explores a darker and grittier side of the Athenaverse. It can be read as a standalone, but it still shares the same universe that you’ve found in other books. This book features a dark romance of an alpha male alien warrior, and a human woman. No cheating, no cliffhangers, and HEA guaranteed.

Wow!! Another great adventure in the world of Athenaverse. It’s a dark sci-fi romance between two broken hearts. Valerie and Penny find themselves at odds. I just loved the banter between the two. Will they be able to put their differences aside for a happy ever after? This is a great addition to the collection.

Great addition to the series. Vyker is a Vakutan who trains new recruits for the Alliance Forces. He gets called to his bosses office for being to tough on the new recruits. Take a bride or get out. Ugh, he hates both options, Penny is a screw up. Sparks fly when both Vyker and Penny meet. This story was was written and moves at a pretty good pace. As Penny runs away Vyker follows. Will these two ever find their HEA? Read the book and find out. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I loved it. The beast may be fierce but with the right woman he’s a gentle beast. Our drill sergeant turned out to be a softy with the woman he loves.
I loved Penny! I can’t help but laugh at her audacity but I am proud of her, she is no weak female. Even though her Vyker came to the rescue, she helped in her own rescue.

Penny and Vyker are both a bit unconventional, and in ways that make them a great pair. Vyker is set in his ways, but Penny is someone who keeps him on his toes. After challenging him physically, aesthetically, mentally, sexually, and in the culinary arts, he is still set in his ways, but his way now involves Penny. Penny, a gymnast and refugee has always had a transient life, meanwhile, has her fears that nothing good ever lasts.
The first portion of the book centers around the comical interactions between the Vyker and Penny. The second portion introduces us to yet another faction in this warring universe. The reapers are one of the more deplorable groups we’ve seen, but with a backstory that could prove to be interesting. This volatile group gives Penny’s sly ways a time to shine, and despite the darker nature of this plot point, managers to bring humor and satisfaction to the story.

Loved this story. Hard to put down.
Vyker has the nickname of Sgt Smiley as he never does but then it is suggested he needs a wife.
Sergeant Master First Class Vyker of the Barakus Military Academy is known a Sgt Smiley as he never does so at work but he is known for producing the best soldiers. Then Headmaster Luz comes up with the idea that Vyker needs a female in his life and seeks one from the Companion Academy. Penny Pierce has survived much and is hoping that the Companion Academy can find her a place and get her out of the hand to mouth existence she has been living. The seven foot plus drill sergeant is shocked to see the five foot two human female who had arrived for him.

I have read several of Athena Storm’s stories so far and wondered how she could write so many good stories so quickly. Don’t get me wrong , the story itself was well written and the spicy scenes were slightly different and enjoyable but there seemed to be a lack of a good story especially in the first half.I love the characters of the athenaverse and how they do intertwine but this one did not seem to hold a candle to the several previous ones I have read.Sorry but it was still a fairly decent book but not one I would return to again and again
